Trastuzumab resistance is a severe problem in the treatment of ErbB2-amplified cancer. Although trastuzumab plus pertuzumab is able to partly overcome trastuzumab resistance in ErbB2-overexpressing cancer, its antitumor efficacy remains limited. The present study investigated the antitumor activity of the combination of trastuzumab with H2-18, which is an antibody targetinsg ErbB2 domain I. Cell proliferation and inhibition experiments indicated that H2-18 and trastuzumab synergistically inhibited the proliferation of both the trastuzumab-sensitive gastric cancer cell line, NCI-N87 and the trastuzumab-resistant gastric cancer cell line, NCI-N87-TraRT. Furthermore, H2-18 plus trastuzumab inhibited the growth of NCI-N87-TraRT cells more effectively than trastuzumab plus pertuzumab, both in vitro and in vivo. Compared with trastuzumab plus pertuzumab, H2-18 plus trastuzumab had a potent ability to inhibit NCI-N87-TraRT cells to form colonies. Notably, H2-18 plus trastuzumab was more effective in inducing cell death than trastuzumab plus pertuzumab. The in vivo studies demonstrated that H2-18 plus trastuzumab effectively inhibited the growth of both NCI-N87 and NCI-N87-TraRT xenograft tumors. Further experiments revealed that in NCI-N87-TraRT cells, H2-18 plus trastuzumab was comparable to trastuzumab plus pertuzumab in the inhibition of phosphorylated (p-)HER3, p-AKT and p-ERK. However, compared with trastuzumab plus pertuzumab, H2-18 plus trastuzumab effectively activated ROS production and the phosphorylation of JNK and c-jun in NCI-N87-TraRT cells. Therefore, the superior antitumor efficacy of H2-18 plus trastuzumab over trastuzumab plus pertuzumab may be mainly attributable to the potent cell death-inducing activity. In addition, the in vitro and in vivo antitumor effect of the combination of H2-18, trastuzumab and pertuzumab were further investigated. The results revealed that H2-18 plus trastuzumab plus pertuzumab exhibited a maximal antitumor effect among all the anti-ErbB2 monoclonal antibody combinations tested. In summary, H2-18 plus trastuzumab may have potential as an effective strategy to overcome the resistance to trastuzumab in ErbB2-amplified gastric cancer cell lines.
